    Krusti update

    Well its been a while so I thought would let you guys know what I been up to. Shifted off the farm June 1, sold cows and am now living in a caravan at Kaharoa, Rotorua.

    Bought a couple off acres but house not on yet.

    This last week has been a shitter with my tractor burning to ground and know I in Sothern Cross Ham having my upper spinal fusion/bone graft after my atv ax couple years back.

    Bloody sore!

    Bikes are in storage and son has sold his RS250 to a guy in AUckland.

    Cheers krusti

    How the hell does a tractor, presumably not running, catch on fire on the back of a truck? Insurance job if ever I've seen one...

    Cool

    Hey Krusti - Good to see you again...


    Not good about the tractor thou... hope it was insured.

    So all three of you are all cramped up in a caravan for a little while...?

    Damn shame you also have to put the bikes and the trike in storage, but hopefully you will be able to get out on them to ride them on weekends etc...

    Damn Krusti, that is some bad luck man. Still at least you are on the mend and have a brighter future, good luck and heal fast.

    Bad luck Krusti. Been wondering how your move went. Hope you heal quickly and get back on your feet again soon. At least when you're all healed up you have some excellent roads to go scratching on. Te Waerenga is one of my favourites!! Keep an eye out for cops doing their dog training out there tho...they tend to cut corners up there...me & my kids nearly got taken out twice by them being on the wrong side of the road. You can make a great circuit around Kaharoa rd, Penny rd & Te Wearenga rd. Great fun!

    You could have turned the heater on if you were cold....

    Seriously though, the Tractor's not good but at least when the back pain subsides you'll be feeling better.

    Driving down driveway, smelled smoke, jumped out and looked under bonnet. Wiring burning. Couldn't get it out.
    Pic is of me standing with firefighters just as they arrived.

    Had my bone graft / fusion on Thursday starting to move about more. Hopefully will make a big difference in long run. This makes number two so my whole spine will be titanium soon!
    Thanks guys will catch up soon.
